Lookin’ for Good Pet Food Blues

A pet food version of the famous Jim Croce song Workin’ at the Car Wash Blues. Just for fun.

While walking the dogs and listening to music from Jim Croce, the song Workin’ at the Car Wash Blues starting playing and my twisted little mind changed the words to Lookin’ for Good Pet Food Blues. I made an attempt to karaoke the song, but I can’t sing – I REALLY can’t sing. So instead of torturing all of you with my singing, I thought it was best to let you hear the music of Jim Croce and sing along with my new pet food lyrics to this classic song.

Well I had just went down to the local store,
Wanting pet food for the cats and dogs.
Tried to find ’em something safe and healthy
But no matter how much I shopped
They wouldn’t listen to the fact that I wanted real food
The store say its all complete and balanced food
Now I got them steadily depressin’, low down mind messin’
Looking for good pet food blues.

Well it should be easy, finding healthy pet food, for my little furry pals
I’m talking food like what’s on the package
Sayin hey now pet food where’s that grilled meat?
Instead, I’m stuck here reading these labels till I’m blind
So confused don’t know which one to buy
With them steadily depressin’, low down mind messin’
Looking for good pet food blues.

You know the FDA says its ok
That our pet’s food can be made from trash
But till they get the laws straight, I’m left to worry and wait
If this pet food is safe or its not

Well all I can do is shake my head
That good pet food is so hard to find
Understandin’ pet food regulations
Is a job for Private PI
So baby, I’ll keep on trying,
To find a pet food not lying, made with real food that’s healthy to eat.

Cause I got them steadily depressin’, low down mind messin’
Looking for good pet food blues.

Yea I got them steadily depressin’, low down mind messin’
Looking for good pet food blues.

Too cute, but, also, too true!!! I have been going half crazy for the last few months trying to find healthy foods for my 4 kitties!!! And it makes me tired just THINKING about making all their foods homemade. PLUS, we have a small freezer compartment to store the food. Guess I need to start thinking in that direction though.

We’re finding talents we didn’t know you had! Glad you were able to have some fun – at their expense! I know my precious Binky died of eating that crap in his cat food. He already had irritable bowel disease back in 2005 but I didn’t know anything about carageenen even by the time he died in 2013. So he was eating that every day while I was trying to find some – any “miracle” product to help him. Poor little boy.
